D There are a lot of reasons why people calling 911 might not be able to tell operators which floor they’re on in a high rise building. They could be injured or simply confused. Yet precious minutes are wasted when emergency personnel have to search a building to find a person in need. With a new app called Sensory, emergency responders soon may be able to use a caller’s smartphone to locate his exact position in a building. Columbia University researchers William Falcon and Henning Schulzrinne created Sensory using a twostep process. First, they used all existing smartphone features that help narrow down a caller’s location. All iPhones produced after 2021 already include GPS and altimeter（測高儀） that can help emergency responders determine if a person is outdoors or inside a building. But when it es to tall buildings, just knowing a person’ s altitude may not be enough， because the i distance between floors changes from one building to another. So Falcon and Schulzrinne analysed the plans of figuring out the average distance between floors in residential（住宅的） buildings and office buildings among more than 1000 buildings in New York City. They tested their app in 63 experiments in five highrise buildings and found that it could find a caller’s location within t wo floors with about a 91 percent accuracy. In a survey conducted by Find Me 911 this year, dispatchers（調(diào)度員） said that they regularly received calls from people in need who often couldn’ t share their location. They sometimes accidentally give the wrong address or floor number. Some callers are too young to know their address. Dispatchers also received calls from those who are deaf or have hearing problems and they often couldn’t hear the operator’s questions. The new Sensory app could help shave precious minutes off the time it takes first responders to get to those calling for help. And it could make the difference between life and death. 32. The new app Sensory can be used to . A. provide emergency measures B. speed the connection to 911 C. locate emergency callers accurately D. improve the function of smartphones 33. What can the Sensory’s first step help emergency responders do? A. Make use of a smartphone’s sensors. B. Detect whether a caller is indoors. C. Combine GPS and signal strength. D. Help callers speak clearly and accurately. 34. What does Paragraph 4 really want to tell us? A. The reasons for failing to get exact location. B. The basic information about emergencies. C. The potential danger of failing to rescue. D. The different kinds of emergency callers. 35. What is the author’s attitude to the new app? A. Skeptical. B. Supportive. C. Unconcerned. D. Opposed. 第二 節(jié) （共 5小題 ； 每小題 2分，滿分 10分） 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容 ， 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。 The word Nushu literally means “ women’ s writing” in Chinese: As the name suggests, Nushu is created and specially used by women.
